SSB64 and Brawl similarities

[Moon/Sun]

I'm sure others have noticed that Brawl is a lot like the N64 smash. Aside frome the player entrances is the speed.
Samus's screw attack took long in N64, was sped up in melee, slowed down again in Brawl.
If you dont know what I mean just look at the first smash bors game's speed. Whenever you were struck with a combo the game slowed down naturally, such as Pikachus Fair or Marios Dair. In Melee this changed so the games action was more intense. In Brawl it looks like the creators went back to the old style of slowing down in a combo.
Anyone agree with me?

I noticed this too. But mainly it's the floatiness. SSB64 was very floaty compared to Melee, and it has returned.

 

[M.K]

I like it slowing down. It adds some "POW" to your punch, claw, tail, magic...thing.
SSB64, IMO, is sort of hard to play after playing Melee for 6 (going on 7) years. It seems so primitive, with the 12 or so items, 12 characters, and 12 or so stages.

With this, maybe we could get more control rumbling. The hits would look more intense, yeah.

 

[Moon/Sun]

Yes your right. One thing I miss from Smash64 was the damage sounds(bowling pins being struck?) that were music to my ears along with a satisfying FALCON PUNCH!!

Samus' UP-b, and other multi-hits were slowed down in PAL Melee (IE Zelda's F-Smash.)

Some old traditions never die...

I thought I was the only one who bothered to notice.

Nice to see them return, made you wonder if Pikachu was suffering or not, which we all need to know.

This make me want Smash 64 on VC so bad.

Brawl matches will probably just be a mix of Melee and the original smash. Slower moves and more impact on combos, but there will be more and easier combos which is different from either of the smashes I guess. Meh, we have to play the game to be able to really say anything.

yea, and wait until next year....but this month has soared by soooo fast...brawl will be out before you know it...

 

[Moon/Sun]

I too thought Brawl is a mix of 64 and melee.

 

[Metalknux]

I just hope they bring the Falcon Punch from 64 back. It just seemed so much more powerful and dynamic than the one in Melee.

I think that the overall feel of the game makes it similar/different compared to other games. Just because the characters are more floaty or the speed is toned down doesn't mean that it's more similar to SSB64 than it is to Melee. It's all about your overall strategy--your gameplan.

How could this game be made similar to SSB64? Combos. Lots and lots of inescapable 0%-to-death combos.

if they still have luigis cyclone, i hope that we can still fly up a lil, but it needs the ability from 64, cuz u can go a lil higher as i saw in a vid

From what I saw, Brawl looks a lot like a fusion of SSB64 and SSBM. I don't really care though, as long as the gameplay's fun.

yeah as long as a game isnt painful to look at manhunt 3 for wii *cough* *cough* I dont really care about graphics

also i see the similarities to 64 but also some to melee

 

[Lemon Drop]

Things I noticed myself:

-Entrances
-The Winning Screen
-The overall look of things
-The Soundeffects sounds like it makes more of an impact
-Old school item Bumper :O

 

[greenblob]

None of those things matter compared to the gameplay.
Anyway, I hope that Brawl is more like Smash 64. I want more combos.

 

[Moon/Sun]

Lemon Drop I agree with the sound effects thing. Melee sounded great with its damage sounds being more realistic. However when I hear Brawls damage sounds I think of commets hitting something. I dont know but they just sound as though they have more impact.
